Family Promise® of Clark County is a nonprofit organization committed to help children and their families affected by homelessness in the Clark County, WA area.
Over 2200 children are without a fixed address in the Evergreen and Vancouver School districts. Over 3000 children are without a fixed address in all of Clark County.
Family Promise® welcomes families with children experiencing homelessness, puts them into immediate temporary shelter, gets the children to school, and assists parents with permanent long term solutions. It is an established and successful program, but we need help getting the program running here in Clark County and there are many ways to make a difference.
We need to raise $150,000 to fund the program for the first year.
Please consider donating today or hold a fundraiser at your school, congregation, business or organization.
For more info, visit our donation page.
We hope to begin accepting applications to participate in our program soon after the first of the year. If you need emergency shelter right now please contact the Council for the Homeless Housing Hotline at 360-695-9677.
